Direct-substitution method for studying second harmonic generation in arbitrary optical superlattices

Galerkin Finite-Element Method for the Analysis of the Second Harmonic Generation in Wagon Wheel Fibers

The nonlinear effects of the second harmonic generation have been investigated for the propagation of light along the axis of fibers of wagon wheel cross sectional shape. Nodal finite element formulation is utilized to obtain discretized Helmholtz equations under appropriate boundary conditions. The hierarchical p-version nodal elements are used for meshing the cross section of wagon wheel fibe...

Anisotropic magnetization-induced second harmonic generation in FeÕAu superlattices

Arbitrary orbital angular momentum addition in second harmonic generation

We demonstrate second harmonic generation performed with optical vortices with different topological charges imprinted on orthogonal polarizations. Besides the intuitive charge doubling, we implement arbitrary topological charge addition on the second harmonic field using polarization as an auxiliary parameter.

Optical second harmonic generation chiral spectroscopy.

Chiral spectroscopic study: The intensities of second harmonic generation chiral spectroscopy are obtained from the dispersion of the nonlinear optical susceptibility components, as a function of wavelength for helicenbisquinone thin films (see figure). A single formalism fits all the data simultaneously, and the findings constitute an important milestone towards the development of a new experi...

Optical second harmonic generation properties of BiB3O6.

We present studies of the optical properties of the new nonlinear material BiB3O6 for second harmonic generation from the visible to infrared. We have determined the phase-matching conditions and effective nonlinear coefficients in the three principal optical planes, acceptance bandwidths, spatial and temporal walkoff, group velocity dispersion and double phase-matching behaviour. We also repor...
